Well now I kind of want to play a game of hot / cold with Fazle just to see if they can find where I hid the box.
I told my daughter she can text me if she feels dumb when her friends disappear into Snapchat on their phones, and she can’t join in because we’re not letting her have Snapchat until she’s older.
I’m sad and angry at technology.
Joining me on Thursday is the esteemed Andy Bell who’ll bring his British sensibilities and questions about live streaming from the Mac. I’m not sure if we’ll be able to demo live streaming while live streaming, but we’ll have fun trying! Tune in here.
Don’t watch the new Superman trailer if you’re planning to see the movie already. You know you’re going to go. You know it’ll be a big, epic fun movie. You have everything to lose by watching the trailer and nothing to gain. (This is directed at me more than anyone else 😆)

The US National Parks having a fake beef with each other, all while posting the weirdest most feral content on TikTok is not how I saw the resistance going… but I’m loving the choices they’re making. 😆
TikTok has a new caption preset that tries to add emoji to your captions… sometimes it works great. Other times, it just lands in the gutter.
New blog post: Brick Your iPhone on Purpose
I caved and watched the Murderbot trailer and I’m genuinely excited for the show. I really enjoyed Martha Wells book series that it’s based on.
I don’t really care whether the MCU is back baby or not, but I genuinely really enjoyed Thunderbolts* in a way that I haven’t a lot of superhero movies recently. It has a lot of heart in the midst of all the big explosions.
These came with our biennial purchase of a umbrella for our deck (because #Saskatchewan) and I feel like I could use them for something else? Any ideas?
I can’t wait to be able to tell my kids to go play Fortnite on their iPhone so I can play #Fortnite on my tv again. 😝
